Ah ha! Another Canadian. We are taking over this place :onfire:

Welcome :) You have some awfully cute fish faces there!
It is absurd to talk of one animal being higher than another. We consider those, when the cerebral structure/intellectual faculties most developed, as highest. A bee doubtless would when the instincts were.

hey and thanks for the good comments. yes they are little cuties and im happy to report they have been healthy ever since i have had them. when i got them they had more perfect spots than any i had ever seen and super healthy so i had to get them. the bigger literally has almost perfectly symmetrical spots. let me find a picture.........

not the best picture to describe what i want. but here you go! they are best friends and readily share food and sleep right beside eachother. i need to warm up the water as they arent very active. sad i cant afford a heater right now.

They really do need a heater unless your place is very warm. We kept our crayfish without a heater however soon realized that although my place is kept around 26C (I know, I'm disgusting) the tank was around 19C (67-8F). Here's some information so you can learn more about them.

Welcome, nice puffers
It's amazing how easy maintenance is. If done regularly and thoroughly
